This is a Wolfgang Puck recipe and it is delicious! I found it again when I was surfing the net - as always, looking for something else, and voila I found it! I had eaten this a long time ago when a friend prepared it for us, my friend left for somewhere in Cuba — never to be heard of again, more than likely she is very busy trying to build a house for her folks wheeling and dealing, so as to get what she needs — she doesn't have time to write and then find someone that she trusts to deliver the letter to me! Anyway — the recipe is truly wonderful! Wine pairing: If you're feeling adventurous try a full and oakey Chardonnay from Australia like Rosemount, Petaluma or Lindemans. This dish goes great with a number of the micro brews, such as Anchor Steam, Sierra Nevada or the most popular Samuel Adams.
